Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Frequent vomiting with inability to stomach foods and black in the end can be due to severe gastritis or esophagitis, ulcers in stomach or duodenum or small bowel problems.
Hence it is needed to go to the ER asap for proper clinical evaluation, examination and further investigations of blood like CBC, liver function tests and as needed.
Tests of ultrasonography of the abdomen and X-ray of the abdomen in standing position.
This will give the proper diagnosis and a chance to get a proper prescription of a PPI like Pantoprazole, Domperidone and antacid along with anything as per the reports.
Upper GI Endoscopy is the best thing to get a proper diagnosis to get additional management.
Take soft bland diet, coconut water, banana and anything that is palatable.
